50 people once chased Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan’s son Taimur on his way to tuition, reveals Bollywood paparazzo |

A paparazzo recently discussed the intense fascination of paparazzi and fans with Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor’s son, Taimur Ali Khan. He recounted a particular incident where Taimur, sitting in a car with his nanny, was surrounded by a crowd of 50 people, all eager to catch a glimpse of the young star.
In a recent interview with Ishan on his YouTube channel, a paparazzo discussed the intense fascination that paparazzi and fans have with Taimur Ali Khan, the son of Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.He explained that there was a time when the absence of Taimur’s photos from their posts would lead to a flood of comments and direct messages asking for his pictures. Initially, Kareena and Saif’s permission to photograph Taimur led to the viral spread of his images, which quickly became a hit with the public. This widespread adoration for his cuteness prompted the paparazzi to start capturing his pictures more obsessively.
He commended Kareena for her accommodating attitude towards photographers. He highlighted that one of Kareena’s notable qualities was her willingness to cooperate with the paparazzi, always greeting them with grace. She had no qualms about them capturing images of Taimur outside their residence, which led to a surge in demand. This increased interest prompted the paparazzi to follow Taimur closely, whether he was heading to school, attending tuition, or even playing. The constant attention began to encroach on the child’s personal life, prompting Kareena and Saif to request that photographers refrain from following Taimur to certain locations, such as his school and tuition classes.The photographer recounted a particularly troubling incident that made him realize the extent to which the paparazzi had gone too far. He described an experience where he was riding pillion on a team member’s bike, trying to spot Taimur on his way to tuition. He was shocked to see 40-50 people on bikes following Taimur. He recalled feeling shaken and questioning where all these people had come from. One of his colleagues suggested he wait and see what was happening ahead. As he watched, some individuals climbed onto the gates while others surrounded Taimur’s car, creating a scene that felt threatening. This experience deeply disturbed the photographer, making him realize that their actions were crossing a line, prompting him to think, “No, this is wrong.”

The paparazzo also noted a significant shift in fan behavior, mentioning that fans who once gathered outside Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat to catch a glimpse of the actor began joining the paparazzi to snap photos of Taimur Ali Khan. He reflected on his own fear during the incident, emphasizing that if he felt threatened, the family’s sense of security was even more compromised. Taimur’s nanny also expressed concern, prompting Saif to call the paparazzi and request them to stop following Taimur to school. Following this, the paparazzi decided to respect the family’s privacy, setting clear boundaries to ensure they did not cross the line into Taimur’s personal life. “They have a personal life!” he asserted, highlighting the importance of maintaining this distinction.

He also discussed the changes in the media landscape following the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, highlighting the widespread mudslinging against celebrities that followed. He mentioned how many senior reporters and influencers launched their own YouTube channels to expand their audiences, often focusing on negative content about Bollywood. The paparazzo pointed out that people were drawn to negative stories and sensationalism, which led to a surge in views and monetization for these channels. After Sushant’s demise, several peers spread unfounded negative stories about the industry, not realizing the harm they were causing. “You are making holes in the plate you are eating from,” he remarked, emphasizing that by tarnishing the reputation of others, they were ultimately harming their own credibility and the integrity of their industry. This negative trend continued for an extended period, affecting many in the entertainment world.
